Three simple tips and ideas for playing together
Discover three play ideas to get the most out of shared play experiences with your toddler while playing with LEGO® DUPLO® toy playsets.
1. Unboxing
Play tip: Ask your child to find a few building bricks in the same color as you unbox your new building toy. This will engage them and enhance their confidence.
2. Role-play
Play tip: Ask your kid to find their favorite LEGO DUPLO piece and give it a name. Ask them questions like what their favorite food or color would be, or who their best friend is. Soon enough, you’ll be watching your child create little stories as they build their creativity, communication and self-expression!
3. Appreciate the effort, not just the result
Play tip: Hand your child three random bricks and encourage them to add the bricks to their creation, without telling them where to place them. As they find space for the new bricks, their resilience will strengthen. And your admiration of their innovative building techniques is sure to boost their confidence!
